Address the significant challenges industrial organisations face

Get a holistic

Slow decision-making

Problem-solving and decision-making can be too slow, ineffective, and resource-intensive.

Ensure

Lack of access to centralised data

There is no single source of truth accessible to stakeholders across the organisation.

Break Down

Unable to generate valuable insights

Disconnected apps and data make it challenging to generate game-changing ideas.

Drive

Too many applications

The average user signs in and out of over seven different systems daily.

Enable Data

Work and data are siloed

Different business areas pursue their own agendas and goals, so work and data become siloed.

Accelerate

Siloed business areas

Work silos prevent people from collaborating as much as they could be.

Maximise business performance and drive more value

Built with our proven technology, the Industrial Work Surface delivers measurable value to organisations competing in energy, utilities & renewables, and maritime sectors.

3 months

Time-to-Value

An asset has a typical digitisation time of 3 months, enabling rapid scaling across the enterprise.

AI That Acts, Not Just Analyzes

AI has already reshaped heavy asset industries, but its biggest shift is happening right now: AI that doesn’t just support decisions - it takes action.

For years, AI has been used in the industry to enhance efficiency, automate workflows, and improve safety. But until now, it has largely remained a decision-support tool providing insights but leaving the final action to human operators. That paradigm is shifting.

Agentic AI represents a major evolution in artificial intelligence. According to Gartner’s Top Strategic Technology Trends for 2025, agentic AI will move beyond analysis and actively plan and execute tasks with minimal human intervention.

Gartner predicts that by 2028, 33% of enterprise software applications will include agentic AI, a massive leap from today’s <1% adoption.

This shift is particularly transformative for asset-heavy industries like oil & gas, where real-time decision-making and operational efficiency are critical. At Kongsberg Digital, we are leading this evolution ensuring that AI not only provides insights but also takes intelligent, autonomous action, all while operating within clear governance frameworks.


Bridging the Gap Between Insight and Action

The real challenge in the industry isn’t a lack of data - it’s turning that data into meaningful action in real time.

Learn how industrial professionals plan to maximise AI's potential over the next few years in the free report "How AI is Shaping the Future of Work Across Industrial Sectors”.

While AI has helped operators make more informed decisions, agentic AI takes this further. It doesn’t just surface insights, it executes tasks autonomously. This will redefine efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and allow engineers to focus on high-value activities.

Imagine a digital co-worker that continuously monitors asset performance, predicts maintenance needs, and automatically adjusts operational parameters - all without human intervention. This is no longer a theoretical future; it’s a reality being enabled by agentic AI.

Why Agentic AI is a Game-Changer for Oil & Gas

Unlike traditional AI or robotic process automation (RPA), agentic AI doesn’t rely on predefined scripts. It learns, adapts, and makes goal-oriented decisions helping operators manage assets in dynamic environments with greater efficiency.

Gartner predicts that by 2028, at least 15% of day-to-day work decisions will be made autonomously by AI.

In heavy asset industries, this means:

• Faster incident response
• Improved safety measures
• Optimized energy usage

Many oil & gas companies are drowning in data but struggle to connect insights across business units. Agentic AI bridges these silos, ensuring real-time intelligence flows seamlessly between production, maintenance, and logistics teams.

Agentic AI can predict failures before they happen and autonomously schedule maintenance, order spare parts, and reroute workflows to ensure operations continue without disruption.

Trust and Governance: The Missing Piece

We believe trust is critical when AI moves from recommendations to action. AI-driven autonomy must operate within strict governance frameworks to ensure it aligns with business goals and regulatory standards.

That’s why we’re setting the benchmark for responsible AI—where automation is always accountable and built with clear security, compliance, and ethical guardrails.

"The future of AI in oil & gas isn’t about replacing human expertise - it’s about amplifying it. Agentic AI ensures that automation enhances decision-making, not bypasses it."

The Future: AI as a Digital Co-Worker

The next decade in heavy asset industries will not be about man versus machine, but rather man and machine working smarter together.

The companies that thrive will be those that embrace AI as a partner in operations. Agentic AI will fundamentally change how we manage assets, optimize resources, and drive sustainability in oil & gas.

As Gartner highlights, the companies that prepare now will gain the greatest competitive advantage. The transition from AI-assisted decision-making to fully autonomous operations is already underway.
